    600 indeed ...it will never work... the vibrations and the extra machining ...oh no you want to stick to 500, and those overead valves will never replace the a good old fashioned side valve ....

    Nope I can never see any of those things catching on its all a passing phase

    Yes, but you'll get an 80s 750....





    To be honest, I'd probably buy the 80's 750 because I cant justify the 28,000 extra dollars.... Nice thought though....

    I'm faaar too young to like that. I mean, where're the acres of shiny plastic, and the monoshock!? Plus, those pipes aren't carbon fibre, and the engine's missing at least one cylinder. See, Norton should've hired me as the designer...
